I still remember this nice 'feature' of XScreenSaver.

However, as of 2016 Iceweasel is Firefox ESR again.

The packages in Debian are really old. It's awful.

I was looking at my xzutils package the other month. "So outdated," I thought, envying the cool hip trendy Arch users.

I just want a Debian-based distro with KDE that's not poisoned by Canonical's nonsense

I'm currently on debian. I wrote this comment as a response to the Debian slander in the meme.

I am a little biased because I've been using Debian professionally for many years now but we don't deserve Debian. It is fantastically stable and reliable and makes an excellent platform for running your services off of. If you are at all interested in offering some time and energy to the open source community, consider adopting a Debian package!

I'm thinking about a Linux laptop with FOSS software for my business actually, Lemmy's relentless horde of pro-Linux propaganda has won me over

(OK I've always liked FOSS I've just never taken the jump)
